Default About those JBA duals...

I searched a bit on YouTube and wasn't finding what I wanted, so I'll just ask.

I'm switching my Pony over to duals (probably in the spring, since I can't enjoy the noise with my windows down in the winter) and I ordered a JBA dual exhaust kit.

It showed up today and I went and got in and was very happy and all that, and it turns out my supplier mistakenly ordered me the entire H-pipe kit with mufflers (I had wanted the kit without.)

My plan is to put Borla Stingers on that H pipe (haven't ordered them yet), but I was just wondering about the JBA duals.

To anyone with that setup, how would you describe the sound with the JBA H pipe and JBA duals? Is it similar to GT takeoffs? Louder? Sound deep? Or a bit raspy? Is it a mean rumble noise, or something a bit more refined and smooth?

I'm just trying to decide if I should sell my JBA duals (because they'd be easier to sell brand-new and un-used as they currently are), or maybe hang onto them and even try them out before I slap the Stingers on there.

I know they don't drone (which the Stingers do), but that's basically all I know about JBA duals. Any thoughts? Any videos?

The JBAs sound very muscle-ie, not refined like the Borlas or Corsas. They make a pretty deep rumble all the time, and they howl when you are on it. They tend to make a lot of noise in the lower gears too.

For me, they were too loud, however, most people would consider them "quiet" lol.

Here is a clip from the inside of the car (JBA dual, JBA shorty headers and Paxton Supercharger) while at speed.
